Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of the titrant in a titration?

  • To neutralize the excess acid or base in the solution
  • To measure the volume of the analyte
  • To indicate the end point of the reaction
  • To react with the analyte in a known concentration (correct)

    • What is the difference between the equivalence point and the end point in a titration?

  • The equivalence point and the end point are the same thing.
  • The equivalence point is the point where the indicator changes color, while the end point is the point where the reaction is complete.
  • The equivalence point is the point where the analyte is consumed, while the end point is the point where the titrant is consumed.
  • The equivalence point is the point where the reaction is complete, while the end point is the point where the indicator changes color. (correct)

    • What is the purpose of using a standardized titrant solution in a titration?

  • To indicate the end point of the reaction
  • To ensure the titrant has a known concentration (correct)
  • To neutralize the excess acid or base in the solution
  • To measure the volume of the analyte

    • What type of volumetric equipment is typically used to measure the volume of titrant added during a titration?

    Study Notes

    Titration

    • Titration involves acid-base neutralization reactions to determine the concentration of a solution.
    • The reaction requires a known solution (titrant) added to a solution of unknown concentration (analyte).

    Key Concepts

    • Equivalence Point: The point where both acid and base have been consumed (equivalent or exactly stoichiometric amount), with neither in excess.
    • End Point: The actual result obtained by observing a sudden change of physical properties, such as a color change, near the equivalent point.
    • Titration Curve: A plot of pH vs. volume.

    Titration Process

    • Direct Titration: Titrant is added to the analyte until the reaction is complete.
    • Back Titration: An alternative technique to direct titration.

    Requirements for Titration

    • Reaction must be stoichiometric and well-defined between titrant and analyte.
    • Reaction should be rapid and have no side reactions or interference from other substances.
    • There must be an indication of the end of the reaction, such as a color change or sudden increase in pH.

    Equipment Used

    • Pipette: Measuring accurate and precise volumes of solutions.
    • Burette: Pouring measured volumes of solutions.
    • Conical Flask: Mixing two solutions.
    • Wash Bottles: Containing distilled water for cleaning equipment.
    • Funnel: Transferring liquids without spilling.
    • Volumetric Flasks: Making up accurate volumes for solutions of known concentration.

    Example Calculation

    • Calculate the molarity of the base: Mb = 0.3157 M

    Standardization

    • Standardization: A process to determine the concentration of a solution of known concentration by titrating with a primary standard.
